Zucchini-Oatmeal Muffins

Great Recipe This is a great way to use some of my plentiful garden zucchini. This is a nice flexible recipe as well - I reduced sugar to 1C as suggested by other reviewers and I happened to have an open jar of pumpkin butter so used that instead of apple. I also added dried blueberries for my half of the batter, leaving the pecans for my husband. I'm thinking dark chocoate chips would make an excellent add in as well, will try that next time. Pros: Versatile

Wouldn't say this is harder to make than any other muffin, but I don't make my morning muffins in the morning, I make a batch and freeze them. They were sweet, I used 1 & 1/4 cups of sugar, next time I'll go down to 1 if not lower. I was surprised by the amount of sugar but figured it was divided between more muffins so it wasn't as much as it seemed. I got 18 muffins (since I had a 12 muffin tin and a 6 muffin top tin). I'll probably add a fruit next time to add more interest, dried cherries, huckleberries, or cranberries. Then I expect it to be perfect.

This took too much preparation for a morning muffin. I'd suggest not waiting until the morning you want them, and bake the night before. Also, they were quite sweet. I'd cut the sugar to one cup next time (if there is a next time).
